This is a maternity relief position and should the permanent incumbent require an early return from maternity leave, this contract of employment will cease with two weeks’ notice. Maternity relief positions can be for a period of up to 12 months, with the possibility of continued employment for up to a further 12 months for maternity leave reduced hours, therefore there are no claims to permanency. 
 

At CCLHD, our vision is clear: Trusted care. Better health for everyone. On our Aged Care Unit at Woy Woy Hospital, this vision is brought to life through compassionate, person-centred care for older people, many living with dementia, frailty, and complex health needs.
 

About the Role

• As a Registered Nurse in our dedicated aged care team, you’ll support older patients during one of the most vulnerable phases of their lives. This is a chance to deliver dignified, respectful care, make meaningful connections, and be part of a team that values kindness just as much as clinical skill.
• You’ll be supported with ongoing education, a warm team culture, and an environment that recognises the emotional impact, and deep rewards of aged care nursing.
• This role works on a rotating roster, including 8-hour morning and 10-hour night shifts. We understand the importance of flexibility and mental health support, and we are committed to providing a workplace where you feel valued and empowered.
• Free parking is available and easy access to public transport for added convenience
